Wow, it's been a long week! The play is done hooray! It went well, but I'm glad it's over because it's one more thing I can cross off my list.

"I don't understand. Am I the only dumb bunny here?"

I'm in Chicago with Michelle and Mimi! We went out to dinner at Italian Village and Manic joined us for a FUN time. I will never keep a straight face when I hear the word "Twitter" again.

Now we're sitting here in our hotel room and every time a firetruck goes by or a car makes some noise, Mimi and Michelle freak out. Michelle says that cows don't make noises like that. I'm cracking up here!

No Sunday sound out (mostly because I just realized it was Sunday about 5 minutes ago and I have to get to bed. Don't want bags under my eyes for Oprah tomorrow, right? Instead I'll show you the cover of my book this week!

It sure looks like you gals were having fun! All the photos of Chicago are making me long to be there. Good thing I'm going there in July for a meeting; I can eat at my favorite restaurants and maybe I'll meet George Clooney's dad too.

I am so glad that you guys are having so much fun! How is Mimi doing? Did she talk about Julian? Is that the right Mimi you are talking about? Yuu guys looked like your friendship will just blossom from here and that is the best thing in the whole wide world. Take care and I'll watch the audience for a glimpse of you. AKB

Is it just me or have you lost weight since you got famous? Is it all the stress and hetic-ness of your life? Doesn't matter, you look so great! Just to show all stay at home mom's, you don't have to wear pj's and have a ponytail, you can look good. Dawn does it. Hope your trip was great!

I nearly jumped outta my chair when I read 'will be on Oprah'. Did I miss an awesome update announcing an Oprah appearance?? Then I read the post before that & realized you'd be in the audience. Ohhhhh.

Dawn: Thanks for sharing!! I personally am anxious to see your "cover art".Just counting down the days until your BOOK is ready. Do you think we have to camp out at Barnes & Noble like they did for the Harry Potter books?

OMG... what is wrong with u?? You are NOT fat!!! The pic of you entering your room is the only one that I have seen that is full length of you and you are definately not fat. And I have to say you are a really beautiful smile..one that reaches your eyes :)

Looks like a fabulous time was had. I heard about you from Manic- and then I saw the name of your blog and had to stop by- because my mom STILL uses your title to this day when she tells me something I don't want to hear and I say "why?" LOL

Twitter? Oh do tell! Haven't seen the tape...neighbors were in charge of that...had radiation and then post op exam, will post results later...just checking on your fun day before a nap...living vicariously through my warriors...sure do love you gals!

I'd say you need to get out more, but you appear pretty busy. Guess I'm immune to Chicago's charms, I've worked in the loop since 1979.

You do know that the only thing on Italian village's menu that meets any kind of WW points reasonably is the salad - sans dressing! Hope you enjoyed it (even if you did have to use all 35 weekly points!)

This comment is really for the Oprah post above but I can't get into the comments for some reason. I was going to say that when I saw the title that I thought Oprah interviewed YOU. I was going to program her show to record here tonight. Darn it. Your time is coming, I just know it!

OMG! I *love* The Village. I used to have a subscription to theater downtown (ahhh, the days of being single) and would go there before every performance. I even had a regular order that the waiter knew. I really miss those days sometimes.

You're so lucky to get one of the alcoves. Those were always my favorite places to sit! But I did *not* know about the gum. Maybe that's best.

Glad y'all had lots 'o fun. So very jealous... and way behind on my blog reading!
